The command chattr +a /opt/app/logs will ensure the log file can only be written into without removing previous entries. The chattr command is a tool for changing file attributes on Linux file systems. The +a option sets the append-only attribute, which means that the file can only be opened in append mode for writing. This prevents the file from being modified, deleted, or renamed. This is the best command to use to accomplish the task. The other options are incorrect because they either set the wrong attributes (+d, +i, or +c) or do not affect the file at all (-a).
